What is an academic advisor?

Your academic advisor is available to help you with scheduling, adding or dropping a course, or planning for your academic future. Your academic advisor also is a good place to start when you're not sure who you need to talk to about a problem or question. Your academic advisor can assist you in identifying and communicating with other offices at the college.
